Mine, I led pottery-painting workshops, provided excellent customer service, and managed various studio tasks including cleaning, packaging finished pieces, and handling transactions. Most recently, I served as a Wheel Throwing Instructor at The Art Beat, where I taught both children and adult classes in which I demonstrated and assisted students with wheel throwing techniques. Throughout my work, I have consistently demonstrated strong communication, organization, and problem-solving skills, creating enjoyable and educational experiences for my students.
